I am a newbie just started exploring Grails so that I can recommend this
great framework for projects at our work. While learning I am trying to
create a prototype of the application using Grails 1.3.7 on ubuntu,
when I run-app after few minutes my system hangs and the system monitor
shows that it consumed more than a gig of memory. I am only running a
browser and terminal and not even netbeans or eclipse.
I thought that it might be because of in memory hsql db, but I configured
mysql and even then its the same memory issues. My application is very
simple couple of forms and I am using spring security,jms and searchable
plugin and nothing more.
I would really appreciate any suggestion which would improve the memory
issue or else I will have to pass off this framework. Being a developer I
feel sad that I am going to miss out such wonderful framework just because
of on such issue.
My computer has 2 gig of RAM and only runs a chrome browser and terminal. Also I only have only one controller I made and couple of domains thats all.
Please provide step by step instructions to improve as I am totally new to this
Thanks for reading
